The History of Western Swing with Ginny Mac - Fort Worth Public Library What a time we had at Fort Worth Central Library on Tuesdays in March! I put together a lecture series about the history of Western Swing that included photos, recordings, discussion, musicians and guest speakers, and a full band performance in the last session. If you missed it in person, here is the library link with archived video presentations: www.fortworthtexas.gov/departments/library/posts/ginny-mac-videos-blog I also created a website to keep up with the information we covered! Feel free to check it out from the "The History of Western Swing - FWPL" tab at the top of this page Hope to do this again in the future, and that you will join us on a Western Swing journey.... 🤠 🎻 |
